Bosch VOT-320 Thermal IP Fixed Camera Wins New Product of the Year Award

Security Products—the only integrated product magazine reaching the entire security market—has chosen the VOT-320 Thermal IP Fixed Camera Series as a winner in its 2011 New Product of the Year Awards in the Perimeter Security category. This award program honors the outstanding product development achievements of security equipment manufacturers whose products are considered to be particularly noteworthy in their ability to improve security.

The VOT-320 Thermal IP fixed camera series, which enables round-the-clock monitoring in any lighting condition, combines the advantages of thermal imaging with Intelligent Video Analysis capabilities for a unique security solution for early threat detection - even in complete darkness, heavy fog or snow. The cameras provide uncooled long wave thermal images to capture heat-radiating objects up to nearly 13,000 feet away.

With Intelligent Video Analysis (IVA) optimized for thermal imaging, the cameras automatically analyze video signals for suspicious activities or hazardous situations and alert operators to potential risks. IVA captures comprehensive details of recorded scenes, helping operators find any event quickly - even those not pre-defined as alerts.

With an innovative tri-streaming feature, the cameras can simultaneously produce two H.264 streams and one JPEG stream. This allows you to have a high-resolution H.264 stream for living viewing and recording and a second lower resolution H.264 stream for constrained bandwidth networks, while JPEG images are sent to another device.

Video can also be recorded on an iSCSI storage array without the need for additional software or locally on a Secure Digital (SD) card to provide increased reliability in the event of a network failure.

For easy installation, the cameras conform to the Open Network Video Interface Forum (ONVIF) specification, which guarantees interoperability between network video products regardless of manufacturer.

The series includes rugged housings that are IP 66 rated and feature an integrated window heater. It is ideal for a range of applications, including transportation hubs, traffic monitoring, industrial sites, and homeland security applications.
